Volunteer
JMRL values volunteers - Thanks for your interest! Please see available volunteer positions below.
JMRL accepts applications for those with court-ordered community service. However, please note:
- JMRL cannot guarantee that the branch where you wish to volunteer is accepting volunteers.
- JMRL cannot guarantee that you can earn all of your hours by the requested date. JMRL volunteers typically work a few hours a month. Please have another option to complete volunteer hours if JMRL cannot accommodate all of the required hours.
- With the exception of approved one-time special projects with library staff, JMRL asks for a minimum volunteer commitment of 6 months. Length of volunteering service varies from branch to branch.
If no opportunities currently exist, you may submit an adult volunteer application to be kept on file.

Central Library
Assist library staff in hosting sewing programs, including hands-on instruction for participants to learn how to use a sewing machine.
The Central Library is equipped with a SINGER Heavy Duty 4423 sewing machine, and we have exciting program ideas in the works, such as creating stuffed toys, bags, and bookmarks. However, we are open to collaborating with the volunteer to highlight their strengths and incorporate their activities.
